Please Urusei-fags, if you want to make a constant general at least name it so we can filter it. Enough with your coy OPs.

>>155471701
Astroboy.

The Jetsons

for normies or waifu fags?

I really do not see any single anime being the most influential.
Really what happens is a groundbreaking anime is made then subsequent anime build upon the groundwork that anime laid.
There have been quite a number of anime like this throughout the many decades, especially in the 70's and 80's when the medium began to enjoy mainstream popularity.
I would say that it is much harder to make an influential anime now than it would have been in the 80's.
That is just a broad statement about anime as a whole, now anime influences within genres is another matter.
If you are intensely familiar with a genre you can usually trace influences.
When I watch a show in some of the genres I enjoy I feel as though I have a clear idea of where the major influences and ideas originated.

>>155471739
Only in the 2010s

>>155471701
depending on the meaning of influential,
Dragon Ball for most people because its globally recognized and even people who haven't seen it recognize the characters and can name a few or by the loose definition of anime anything that Hayao Miyazaki makes.

>>155471701
Steamboat Willie.

Star of the Giants

Ranma perhaps?

I mean for fucks sake, I can find fucking 27 year old fanfiction made by the most elder of weebs.

>>155471701
In America, probably Pokemon.
I can't speak for other countries.

Yamato was more influential than Gundam

Lupin III

>>155474800
Pokemon was not influential at all in the west, though it was in Japan. It was popular, yes, but it didn't really influence a whole lot. I would say DBZ was much more influential than it, since DBZ more or less introduced action to cartoons in the west.

>>155476905
dragon ball fucking nigger

>>155476932
DB wasn't a big influence until Z. Context.

you could argue Pokemon or DBZ, but I say Lupin III. Not only is it one of the most influential and important series in Japan but it's also responsible for influencing guys like John Lasseter and Steven Spielberg.

It's parodied and referenced it literally tons of anime/manga as well as american cartoons, disney films, and even video games.

Even things like Astroboy which despite being important to anime isn't really relevant anymore unlike Lupin which has new content every year. This year alone they came out with a hit film Directed by Koike himself.

Goemon isn't that important the show. He shows up for like 2 minutes to cut something and thats it. How can something so minor ruin a series. He's actually kind of cool to be honest. If you took the time to see Fuma Conspiracy or his new movie, you would probably agree.

>>155478146
try reading this or just start at the beginning and watch everything in order. it's not hard.

>>155478240
>He shows up for like 2 minutes to cut something and thats it. How can something so minor ruin a series
Because those moments are extremely important, and affect the outcome of the story.

His movie was by far the most boring and garbage.

Why would anyone think you're referring to Fuma? That's literally one of the most universally loved Lupin films.
>>155478659
Green Vs Red makes no sense. It's only good for all the references and easter eggs. It also makes less sense to recommend that movie to someone who hasn't seen Lupin before since it's all about all the past Lupin shit.
>being this much of a casualfag
casuals prefer Red or Blue. Green is best.

>>155478798
It's universally loved by retards like yourself, who think a shoehorned, stoic japanese samurai character belongs in a show with fun, lively characters.

>>155478883
that's the joke you fucking idiot.

>>155478069
Fujiko is one of the most influential female characters as well, you can see her influence on some of the biggest female characters in big series like Dragonball and One Piece

>>155478883
Him him and I don't watch lupin, but surely you understand the concept of foil?
If every member of the cast is wacky kooky krazy then none of them really stand out (barring some really masterful characterization). I don't know if it works in lupin or even if Goemon is actually foil (from what I've seen of the series he's just as goofy as the rest of them), but it's silly to discredit the idea of the writer/director deciding to try to change a character to enhance the rest of the movie, right? After all, isn't that exactly what Miyazaki did for Caligiostro?

did someone say Lupin? from what I hear Lupin is the main reason why Cowboy Bebop exists. If that aint influential, then i don't know what is.

>>155479069
>Him him
Meant "Not him". Woops.

>>155478883
Honestly, the only thing wrong with The Fuma Conspiracy is the music. Otherwise, it's a nice little film with gorgeous animation.

>>155479095
I agree except I think it has 2 issues. Yes the music, and also because the original Japanese cast wasn't in it due to them using most of the budget on animation. Nothing can beat the chemistry japanese Lupin and Zenigata had. I'd argue that's a bigger flaw than the music itself, but regardless it's a great film.

>>155479163
I thought the they did alright, although I'm not a fan of the underhanded way in which the production dealt with the older cast. To give my opinions about each one:

Toshio Furukawa (Lupin): Good. I would have liked to hear him as Lupin again personally.

Banjou Ginga (Jigen): A great voice actor on his own but not really a fit for Jigen.

Mami Koyama (Fujiko): MUH DICK.

Kaneto Shiozawa (Goemon): Far too nasally IMO.

Seizo Kato (Zenigata): Serviceable, I suppose.

>>155479551
How do you feel about Sumi Shimamoto?

>>155479657
One of the most talented voice actresses in the biz, imo.

>>155479551
Furukawa was to goofy in my opinion. Yasuo could pull off goofy but also has a cool factor about him which is why Lupin isn't just a silly guy. Also Yasuo's laugh is contagious.

>>155479551
>>155479944
Would Akira Kamiya have worked better for Lupin?

Please tell me it is not just one dude spamming UY threads.

That's one way of admitting you're underage.

/thread

>>155481493
I do tend to forget about Yamato, and honestly, I don't really see it mentioned much. Although influential, I'd say that what I listed had a greater impact as a whole.

>Underage
What. Even the newest show of those four aired in fucking 95, 22 years ago.

>>155481643
>impact
Yeah, because that's really what this thread's all about, right?

Anno and Tomino both cite Yamato as huge influences on their works. You are CLEARLY underage.

>>155481685
Explain how I'm underage with any degree of credibility..

Eva and Gundam have influenced more shit than Yamato.

Deal with it.

>>155471701
Kemono friends

>>155481375
But there are many influential anime across the decades. He asked for THE most.
Otherwise, how can you not include, for instance, Mahou Tsukai Sally? It created a whole genre and spanned a lot of clones, the 70s and early 80s were plagued by their clones. Or Sailor Moon, which basically took the classic formula and subverted it.
What about Ashita no Joe's influence on sports? Or Candy Candy in shoujo? Or Versailles no Bara? Even if we talk only about science fiction and robots in general you can add Yamato, Cobra, Macross (yes, it's Yamato and Gundam mixed together, but it was extremely influential in its own decade) and Mazinger. In martial arts Ring ni Kakero, Hokuto no Ken and Saint Seiya were so influential that their influence spanned even to videogames with their weird techniques and use of spirit energy.

>>155481716
>Eva and Gundam have influenced more shit than Yamato.
t. Underage idiot.

You're underage because only a n utterly ignorant kid would hold such a view.

Influenced nothing

>>155484837
maybe if all you watch is isekai harem shit

Hakujaden - first full colour feature
Astro Boy - set the foundation for TV animation production in Japan
Horus - breaking free of the Disney mold
Yamato & Gundam - landmarks in defining otaku culture

Those are probably the most important as far as modern anime goes.
